MUST FACE VERY SERIOUS CHARGES

Dangerous to Bet On Election—You Might Be Arrested and Also Lose Your Vote. It is a little dangerous to bet on the election, as in some localities gambling is tabooed. A Republican bet a Democrat near here the other day, one hundred dollars that Hughes would be elected. The>. authorities heard of it and charged the Republican with robbery and the Democrat with insanity.—Fowler Tribune.
